Buffalo Man

Originally Aired: May 20, 1956 In Gunsmoke #215, “Buffalo Man,” Marshal Dillon and Chester stumble into a brutal world on the buffalo range, where a headless corpse and a camp ruled by violent hunter Ben Siple set off a chain of danger and abuse. Captured and tied up, Dillon and Chester’s only hope is Abby, a battered woman trapped in Siple’s camp, who risks everything to help them. A tense encounter with the Pawnee leads to a trade of justice for freedom—and a chance for Abby to escape her tormentor. But when Siple tracks her down in Dodge, Dillon must keep his promise that Abby will never be hurt again. A gripping tale of cruelty, courage, and a hard-won second chance.
